Reporter has asked: "Sir, can you tell us about your life?" Old man started: "Of course. I was born in Austro-Hungarian Empire. I studied in Czechoslovakia, then I worked in Soviet Union and now I live in Ukraine." TV reporter: "Wow, that's incredible! How did you managed to travel so much?" Old man said: "Travel?

[@karfrancouzsky9725]

​@@purplestringsmariamichelac3391 If you are interested in history, you can refer to Wikipedia entry 'Massacres of Poles in Volhynia and Eastern Galicia'. Note that I am not able to asses, how accurately it was described there - I assume that it is more or less correct. It shall be taken into consideration, that Europe was not peacefull place in previous centuries, with the darkest period during WW2, that started when Germany and russians attacked Poland within 17 days on September 1939. However Poles do know, that people are not responsible for their grand parents and their grand grand parrents' actions, unless they are still identifying with it (which Ukrainians and Germans are not). Meanwhile Ukrainians are recognizing Stephan Bandera as one of their national hero, that was fighting for independence 90 years ago. Usually they are completely not aware of the fact, that he was also fighting against Poles - it is just not included in their school history courses. On the other hand, Volhynia Massacres became very popular narrativ in Poland since russian aggresion on Ukraine in 2014. I doubt that such an intensiffication was just coincidence. It was rather part of russian internet info-war against Ukraine. Anyway, full scale russian aggression on another country made those narrative irrelevant. We are standing strong with our brothers and sisters Ukrainians because we know, who is STILL the main threat for the peace in Europe and on the word.

Thanks for the video. I wanted to clarify something. 19:24 Actually surzhyk is not a mixture of Ukrainian and Russian. The term "surzhyk" is borrowed from agricultural vocabulary - it is a mixture of different grains. A mixture of wheat, oats, rye, barley, etc. Surzhyk is an everyday language in which elements of two languages ​​are artificially combined, without observing any literary norms. So surzhyk can mean a mixture of different languages. For example, English and French, Ukrainian and Polish, etc. But a mixture of Ukrainian & Russian is more common. That's why many people say confuse those two phenomena.

The second wave happened between the two World Wars, bringing around 9000 Ukrainians mostly from Western Ukraine.

1:07 Ukraine really does have one of my favorite flags in the world. The symbol is cool, but you can read it. It also evokes the vibe of the old rus, which ukraine was founded on the bones of. Not to mention that a blue sky over a field of wheat is simultaneously super accurate and evocative, and something straight out of a fantasy novel.

Ukraine and Poland becoming best friends seemed so unlikely, but as a Polish person I am so happy that it went that way and I hope it'll last! There has been so much pointless violence and conflict between us, from the times of the Commonwealth, through the 19th century and all the horrible things we did to each other in early 20th century, but all that went right out the window and I'm so proud of my fellow countrymen for how we all came together and helped the Ukrainian refugees, especially in those early weeks. My dad and I were planning to go to Ukraine in 2022, but that got cut short by the invasion. We might go this year to Lviv and the Carpathians, but definitely will be going when the war ends. Слава Україні! Hope this pointless war ends soon and that all of Ukraine will be free and safe! Героям слава!

@@umkaukr i, myself, and probably many Poles had this feeling during that febuary - deja vu. But next to us. Attack by a stronger force, from 3 sides. Many of us still have grandmas and grandpas that remember the war. And even if there was almost noone to help us - we cant let that happen again. If we can, we must help to those that need help, because its the right thing to do. Also are you even a Pole, if you dont do something that Russia will not like?

In the friendship-section, it’d be interesting to also talk about the historically antagonistic relationship between Ukraine (or historical Ruthenians) with Poland. As recently as WW1, Ukrainian and Polish Nationalists were actually warring against each other for control over the Westernmost region of Ukraine today, surrounding Lwow.

[@hugotavares1969]

Really loved this episode, it gave me the opportunity to learn a bit more about such an incredible country and people. Just like to suggest that somehow you can pinpoint or tell where the famous places are located, it would be really interesting. Once again thank you for showing us so much about geography, something that I really love! Um abraço de Portugal!!

[@LangThoughts]

I can't believe you didn't mention Uman in the famous places section! It's actually a _Jɛɯish_ pilgramige site, being basically the only major Jɛɯish holy site outside of Isɾael that we have access to (due to other possible sites being in Iraq and Syria, and other countries ħostɨle to Jʊɗaism, like Jordan).It contains the Tomb of Rabbi Nachman of Breslov, whose form Chassidism is extremely visible in Isɾael, with many of their songs entering the ʀeligious Jɛɯish musical tradition more broadly, one major one (ɴɨggun Oz V'Hadar) being composed in Ukraine in the early 1800s. Every year, on Rosh Hashanah, Uman is filled with Isɾaeli and Jɛɯish-American pilgrims who spend the festival there.

[@thetruechaby]

It's impossible to mention so many things in such a limited time, and people know they can always add more information in the comment section.

[@LangThoughts]

@@thetruechaby It takes a line to acknowledge: "There's also Uman, which weirdly houses a major Jɛɯish pilgramige site, despite being outside of Isɾael and surrounding areas, and on Rosh Hashanah, Uman is filled with Isɾaeli and Jɛɯish-American pilgrims who spend the festival there, and thus looks like it is an Isɾaeli village, not a Ukranian one, during the festival.". I'm sure there's a better way to condense the information, that suggestion would be a "rough draft".

[@ServirLaPaix]

The guy at 7:34 is saying Slava Ukraine and Slava "something??" , Could that be a clue why he did not mention the Jewish site?

[@LangThoughts]

@@ServirLaPaix That's just a how many languages of both the former USSR (Lithuanian, Latvian, Georgian) the Warsaw pact (Polish, Sebian, Croatian, Bulgarian) pronounce "Nation". Even the Dutch version is pronounced in some dialects the same way as "ɴ@zɨ" , despite never being under Soviet influence, Italian and Romanian version sound like "ɴ@zɨ" with the suffix -one. The word ɴ@zɨ comes from older German pronunciation of "Nation". Even Russian uses the same word as Ukrainian; I would bet even Putin would refer to any Nation that way; if he were to refer to "The Russian Nation" would be be saying Russia is ɴ@zɨ? It just means "Glory to the Nation [Ukraine]".

But guys, you forgot to mention Azerbaijan as a supporter of Ukraine in external relationship part.

[@salty_hwa]

@@TheMasterInDisguiseAs a Ukrainian I can assure You that not I nor all Ukrainians I've known and seen online want to do anything with russia, its language or culture. Saying and spelling Kiev or Odessa or Zaporozhye etc. is another result of russian-ization of a complete different country, so using russian variations of Ukrainian cities' names is an utter disrespect towards Ukrainians, especially in current circumstances of a full-scale war. Speaking about the video, the author used both Odesa and Odessa in different parts of the video, which I consider just a mistyping/mistake that is easy to make when creating such a complex video, and that's why I just politely pointed it out. And mind You, I know how to spell the name of my own city. Hope this will set some clarity!
